2 1/2 cups vegetable broth

1 cup mashed potatoes

Steps
1
Roughly chop the fennel bulb and onion and sauté in olive oil. Add vegetable broth and cook until vegetables are soft, about 5 min.
2
Whisk in 1 cup mashed potatoes and puree soup with an immersion blender. Simmer for an additional 10 min. on low heat. Ladle the soup into 4 bowls. Cut smoked salmon into strips and divide among the bowls. Top with chopped fresh dill.

Instead of dill, use the feathery fronds from the fennel as a garnish.
